Paul Ogara posted a picture and videos Tuesday night after visiting the Melfort Bell Suites webcam and saw the structure appear to float on its own away from Ucluelet harbour.

By noon Thursday, Ogara’s post had been shared more than 1,600 times and received more than 175 reactions.

But Kevin Cortes with Ucluelet Harbour says the building in the maritime mystery is a crew house that was being towed to Creative Salmon fish farm in Tofino.
